When the 50MB rolled out I got a one of download of over 300MB and regular peaks of over 150MB.

What?

Seems quite simple to understand for the majority. When 50mbit came out, he had a few downloads that peaked at 300mbit, and 150mbit... quite possible.

I have an inkling I may have been upgraded early (PDF says Jan-11) but I'm currently uploading between 580-700KB/s with a few spikes of 751.4KB/s...

Handy!

Looks like Warrington have just been upgraded with the 2mb upload speeds on the 20mb package.

Says on the website though "Jan 2011". Oh well, I ain't complaining

Looks like Reading has been done as well. Seeing upload speeds of 1mb.

Was due 'Jan 2011' as well.

On the schedule it shows Rochdale upgrade for this month but i am under Oldham area which is like afew miles away from Rochdale but the upgrade is not until August 2011 for Oldham which is just a bloody joke tbh.

Map showing distance

Tell me about it Belfast is split into three areas and out of the three I have to be in the one with the furthest away date.

I'm a little dubious. Not knowing the difference between MB & Mb etc. Internet Security packages can play nasty tricks.

got a mate who is paying for 50 but only getting 20, how does one remove the Qos?

KIA · 7 Dec 2010 at 09:51

Did your friend put the QoS in place?

anyone from TW16 area confirm if they have the upgrade or not?

Can't see it on their rollout plan anywhere.

Wardle?

I'm surprised they are being so generous with their upload speeds.

My area doesn't even have a target date, its marked as 'Being planned'

While you lot are getting speed upgrades, I'm not getting any service at all

24 hours now and nothing, and it's not just us...
